I respect Marty Makary a lot. He does great work on COVID. But for some reason, Fox Business’ Stuart Varney invited Marty on his show today to talk about EPA cracking down on PFAS in drinking water. Watch the video below. Unfortunately, Marty obviously doesn’t really have any knowledge or experience with EPA “science” and standard setting. Although PFAS don’t readily breakdown in the body or environment and everyone has been exposed to them, none of that means that environmental or drinking water exposures to PFAS are dangerous or have caused any harm. And there, in fact, is no evidence they have, despite hundreds of studies. There are so many studies, none which show anything, I wouldn’t even know where to begin. But if you have one for me to debunk I am happy to do it. The larger point is that everyone has got to know their limitations. I don’t practice surgery because I am not trained to do it. But I am uniquely qualified to pass judgment on EPA “science” because I have worked on that tragedy for 32+ years.

Tucker Carlson is fantastic. But he is sometimes taken in by environmental fraud. Below is his March 1, 2021 segment fretting the end of humanity based on the crappy work of Shanna Swan. Here is my 2003 FOXNews.com column on Shanna Swan’s crappy sperm count work. Nothing has changed. Here is my more extensive recent piece on the always-bogus endocrine disrupter fraud.
